    “People can’t help but want to protect her at all costs.”


    “Too many people call me cruel and cold-blooded, and yet they would never expect that I want to


    protect her.”


    “It’s okay. The thing you feared would happen didn’t happenst night. When I rushed over, it was just


    in time,” Jason said.


    “It really is him… who saved me!”


    Grace raised her head and dazedly stared at the face that was inches away from her. “But why did you


    go there to save me?” She thought to herself, “He didn’t evene with me to


    town yesterday!”


    “Sister, did you forget? You called me and I rescued you,” he replied with a faint smile. “Luckily, I got


    there in time.”


    “After only a phone call, he was able to travel more than a hundred kilometers just in time to save


    me?!”


    Grace felt an indescribable shock coursing through her heart.


    He spoke as he carried her to the bed and carefully tucked her


    under the covers. “Your hand was cut by the mirror shard. It’ll

    probably take a few days for it to heal. If there’s a scar, I’ll hnd the best doctors to remove it for you.”


    Only then did Grace notice that her right hand was bandaged


    ayer of gauze. She had been so distracted by the many shocking revtions that she had not


    realized that there was a dull pain in her right hand.


    “How much of yesterday do you remember, Sister?” Jason


    asked with a serious expression.


    Grace bit her lip lightly and did not try to hide the events that had happened the night before during the


    dinner, rying everything to Jason without reservation.


    Jason’s expression darkened. “Her rtives are truly… they sold her to a fool! They sure have guts!


    “If anyone dares to scheme against her, I will never let them


    get away!”


    Just then, Jason’s phone suddenly rang and he frowned as he nced at the caller ID. He then turned


    to Grace and said, “I lied to you when I hid my identity from you. You can have me apologize to you in


    any way you like, but now that you’re hospitalized, you should take good care of yourself. I’ll go and get


    the doctor.”


    When Jason was done talking, he left the room and gave


    instructions to Terrence, who had been keeping watch


    outside. “Grace has already woken up. Call for the doctor to check on her condition.”


    Only after he had finished giving orders did he answer the


    call. Mr. Reed’s voice rang at the other end of the phone. “Why did you take so long to pick up?”


    “I’m a little busy,” Jason replied calmly.


    “Is it rted to the woman you savedst night?” Mr. Reed asked frankly.


    Jason was not surprised that the Old Master had found out aboutst night’s incident. After all, he had


    been pressed for time the night before and had informed the town’s police beforehand.


    He had mobilized their forces, and members of the Miller family and Grace’s rtives were still locked


    up in the small town’s police station. It had been easy for the Old Master to investigate the matter due


    to the paper trail left behind.


    “What is your current rtionship with this woman?” The tone of the Old Master’s voice had gone cold.


    “She’s someone I’m protecting,” Jason repliedzily, “so you shouldn’t touch her.”


    “Don’t forget how your father died!” The Old Master suddenly


    raised his voice. “Do you want to follow in your father’s


    footsteps?”


    Jason’s expression darkened instantly. “Dad’s past has always


    been a taboo to me!”


    “I didn’t forget,” Jason replied coldly. “Grandpa, I’m not like


    Father. I would never risk everything for a woman, so you


    don’t have to worry too much!”
